Alban isn't ready to abandon the posibility of the extra power of the altar light and the altar. He searches around for any holy texts or hidden caches that might contain some useful information. Finally, he channels some of his own divine power into the altar calling upon the might he would otherwise use to turn undead. He holds forth his ancient holy symbol and calls forth the power using it to 'prime the pump' of the altar as it were.
Roak takes the center of the line, going to the place the orcs are most likely to breach with their charge.
Just stick Roak at the center of the action, wherever that is going to be.

Andor starts oldest prayer in the book (in christian religion it would be 'Our father on the heaven', I'm sorry, I don't know english expression, it's the prayer to God that Christ tought his disciples...
At the end of the prayer he channels his considerable power invoking also power of Pelor (via Sun domain special power to destroy instead of turn undead)
If that doesn't work he puts his hands on the altar and prays opening himself fully to the power of Light offering his life as source of linking power.
Powers of Light hear Your humble servant. Darkness encroaches us and we seek your aid. Use this mortal vessel as You see fit.
Having said the prayers and started your ritual, both of you feel a searing pain behind your eyes and your entire body becomes racked with convulsions and pain...both of you roll a will power DC 15 and a fort save at dc 13
You sense and uncoiling of power from within the altar that lashes out blinding you breifly before returning to a more normal level..lets wait for Andor before we go on

Bit O' Trivia for Neurotic
That's what is called, in English, The Lord's Prayer, and it goes something like this:
"Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the power and the kingdom and the glory forever and ever. Amen."
That's pretty close to it, anyway. And that's the archaic english of the King James version of the Bible. Sometimes you will see it phrased as "Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors," but the meaning is the same.
OOC: Thanks for waiting. Feel free to roll for me to advance the action. Only one more week and I'm back Sorry, have no access to char (too slow connection I guess) and invisible castle never loads
I believe Andor has will +7 and fort +6, please check and roll; thank you
"Ho, brother! Come and fight near to me so that I may guard you for our mother's sake."
Aidan follows his brother & Roak to the platform looking out over the southern wall. "The road looks clear for the moment, but I expect it that won't last."
Figuring it might come in handy for marking targets in the dark, Aidan pulls a scroll of Faerie Fire out of his backpack.
Roak stands tall on the platform, where the orcs can see his well muscled, armored form. He slowly swings Widow's Lament through a complicated attack routine, hoping to intimidate the orcs so that they will be more hestitant once the reach the wall.

Ewan places himself in the southeastern corner of the southwestern tower. Putting all the orcs along the south in range of his bow. While Roak begins his pre-battle exercises, Ewan sights in on any orc archers or officers he can spot.

As those members on the wall begin to brace themself for the coming assualt, they notice most of the enemy gathering once again against the main gate and entry.
Roak can only roll his eyes and shrug. "Cowards," he says, clapping Nijel on the shoulder. "They are frightened of us. They remember only too well our earlier meeting."

"Aye, 't'would seem so! Shall we go to meet them at the gate and give them the warmest welcome that we can?" Nijel lovingly strokes the blade of his axe as he says this.
Nay, lads. Our duty is here, Padraig argues. We must not abandon our posts, no matter what glory seems to be ready for the taking elsewhere. What if it is a feint, and this wall is the target of a different assault. If we are not here to repel it, all may be lost.
As if his words were prophetic, Padraig then observes perhaps a full company of ogiers with ladders exiting the forest edge and making way towards the party position.
Okay three rounds of missel or other actions before they arrive....
